Wheeling at the Faubion Ranch, Leander, TX. 6/3/01
Pictures compliments of Robert Canon.
| While wheeling with Robert, he noticed this little ledge. When I saw how easy he made it look, I had to give it a shot. However, it wasn't quite as easy for me at first. After about 4 attempts, I decided that I needed to decrease the air pressure in my tires. Once I knocked that down to 10psi, I made it look easy.

| Same hill, viewed from the front. You can get some good air-time coming up this one...

| Same hill, different angle. Todd spotting in the background.

| Directly behind the little climb above, is an obsticle we call "The Rock". It's deceptively steep.
|  |
| I've attempted this hill many times in the past. But since I had the master with me, I thought I'd give it another try. With a little wheel spin and momentum, I was finally able to make it. Only one other vehicle has made it up under it's own power. Robert was the third to make it up!

| Here I'm lining up to tackle one of our newest hills. Thanks to excellent spotting by my right hand man, Todd, I made it look easy!
|  |
| This is where the spotting comes into play, you have to be careful not to hit the rock on the left.
|  |
Up and over!
